Hugs and love to you as well, Sweet Pea. Thanks for dropping by and for the reply :)

I appreciate the sincerity of your reply. I must admit that I am not a Christian, nor am I religious, but I do believe in God; however, I am not a believer in Christ or Satan or most anything Biblical. But what I do know is that not for the good Lord, I would not be typing this morning. I know, no matter what, He will take care of me :)

If you want to remove this heavy burden, God is willing to lift it from your shoulders. Jesus died for you for this very reason. A free gift purchased at a very great price. You can approach him as you are, you don't have to earn it or be good enough. I had the hardest time understanding this. That's why we have to trust like a child, he takes care of the rest.

I agree with you. I think I am an intelligent person who, unfortunately, is prone to making mistakes and monumental messes. I think I express the idea of "The Fool" so much because of all the wrongs I've wrought over the years, and I carry so much guilt as a result. It's a reoccurring theme because poetry is such a therapeutic outlet for me

Thanks for stopping by, Victoria. I think the poem is a metaphor for myself; I am the Fool mentioned, and I am the one who stands in my own way. Things would flow more fluidly if I wasn't too busy messing up everything. I hope that makes some sense, at least (if the poem doesn't lol).
